I actually got a ticket for having a headlight out once...i faught it and got off though!
stupid cops....
Toronto cops are the absolute lowest.....
The only thing lower is Toronto parking enforment......

no i didnt hire someone i just did it myself. i called a few of those companys that deal with speeding tickets ect. The guy from points wanted like $500 and was more than eager to take my money and the guy from one of the other companies (cant remember which one) suggested i deal with it myself.

I cant rememebr the legal term for it but what i did was request to meet with someone about the ticket. The meeting was basically the last step before it would go to court. I met with the person (a judge maybe?) and he got rid of the ticket right then so it never made it to court.
Hope this helps, sorry my memory is so vague but it was a few years ago it happened.

It was probably the Crown Attorney (Prosecutor). I'm pretty sure this is a Strict Liability offense, which means the Crown can win a conviction based on the illegal act, but you can defeat the charge by showing you exercised "due diligence". (ie. "The light was working when you started your trip.")
